The Small Lidded Tea Jar Peony Dots Motif features deep blue decoration against a crisp white ground. Peony blossoms and leafy stems mingle with dense dotted accents, while scrolling and geometric borders define the shoulders and base. Its cylindrical body rises to a narrow neck, and the coordinating lid is finished with a pointed blue finial. Measuring 9 inches high, 4 inches wide, and 4 inches deep, this compact decorative jar fits neatly on a bookshelf, mantel, console table, or office credenza. Display it alone as a focused blue-and-white accent, or arrange it with other patterned vessels for a layered collection. The slender profile also works well in smaller spaces, including an entryway vignette, bedside table, or open kitchen shelf, where the detailed floral motif can be appreciated at close range.

Behind the form

It begins in the hands.

Before a piece is painted, its shape gives it character: the shoulder of a jar, the edge of a planter, the balance of a vase. The porcelain traditions behind our collection bring together forming, hand-painted detail, glazing, and firing.

A closer look

Notice how the painted line follows the form, and how the glaze catches the light.

At home with porcelain

A place for the details to live.

We like porcelain best when it feels part of everyday life, not set apart from it. A lamp can warm a reading corner; a jar can hold its own on a console. Blue-and-white pattern feels especially at ease beside wood, linen, and a little open space.

A room note

Give a favorite piece some breathing room, then let its color echo somewhere else nearby.
